Greater Hartford One Book One Community The one book one book community grew out of a partnership between the CCSU Library, the Forum for Contemplative Practices, and Capital Community College. Its purpose is to encourage schools, colleges and universities, and libraries to read one book authored by His Holiness the Dalai Lama in anticipation of his planned visit to Connecticut in October 2012. The Dalai Lama’s most recent book, Beyond Religion: Ethics for the Whole World was selected for participating individuals, schools and organizations to read during the spring and summer of 2012, and come together to discuss the book and participate in activities related to the book in venues throughout the Greater Hartford area. The project will culminate in a full day of reflection and activities at Central Connecticut State University on October 19, 2012.
